Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions in terms of level of care, since the individual will be able to maintain their lifestyle in many ways with no commitment of having to stay in a rehabilitation facility while undergoing rehabilitation services. Even though this may seem ideal it will not provide the much needed change of surroundings than a lot of people in rehab need to experience a successful rehab.

Spanish

Not all drug rehabilitation centers possess the staff or wherewithal to cater to the requirements of Spanish speaking clients, but thankfully there are more and more facilities that will do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than ever before. Therapy, study information and so on are now very often accessible in Spanish in both short and long terms centers which deliver inpatient or residential rehab and outpatient Spanish rehab is also available nationwide.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the entire cost of treatment or will only pay for some of it. In these cases, it may seem like a drawback but individuals actually have a great deal of leverage simply because they can decide on whichever center they want without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many individuals encounter. Likewise, treatment facilities will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Medicaid

Some treatment programs accept Medicaid if the individual is not able to self pay or present some other kind of private health insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term treatment within a limited amount of programs, and in this case individuals may wish to explore the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they're able to to fund a more quality rehabilitation facility which will get better results, such as a long-term residential drug treatment facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehab at drug and alcohol rehab programs which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehab if the center is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must assist in setting up the individual's rehab plan. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being exactly like any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being paid for through Medicare Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of alcohol and drug treatment if other forms of insurance or self payment are not a possibility. If someone has no private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could be eligible for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office within their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but generally only inside the state which provides the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans generally cover some type of alcohol and drug rehabilitation service including outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehab facilities. Individuals could possibly have to take part in a drug and alcohol treatment facility that is within their network of providers and there may be other restrictions for example the amount of time their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can pick an excellent program they prefer and consult with a rehabilitation specialist to ascertain if their insurance will take care of it.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance option offered by many different alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in an effort to help clients afford treatment where this might not have been doable originally. For instance, one client's price for rehabilitation could possibly be different and someone else whose financial situation is better making them better able to pay the full expense of treatment. Registrars take into account additional circumstances apart from income including amount of dependents to determine the final cost using the sliding scale.

Payment Assistance (Check With Facility For Details)

Many drug rehab programs provide payment assistance to help clients who may not have sufficient money to self pay for treatment or whose health insurance won't provide coverage or total coverage for their stay. As an example, Sometimes insurance only covers a short-term facility when in reality a long-term facility will probably be the more appropriate option. To see what payment assistance could be offered, for instance a sliding fee scale, consult the program for details.
